In this piece, I evaluated two big-box retail stocks, Walmart Inc. (WMT) and Dollar Tree, Inc. (DLTR), to determine a better investment. Based on a fundamental comparison of these stocks, WMT appears to have a better upside potential than DLTR for reasons explained throughout this article.
The inflation cooled in May to its lowest annual rate over two years. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the month rose 0.4% sequentially and 4% year-over-year. Cooling inflation is good news for big-box retailers like WMT and DLTR.
